Sweet Alabama Pecan Bread

Don’t let the name fool you—Sweet Alabama Pecan Bread isn’t really a bread at all. It’s more like a soft, chewy dessert bar that’s bursting with buttery flavor and loaded with crunchy pecans. Think of it as the love child of a gooey butter cake and a pecan praline bar… and yes, it’s just as irresistible as it sounds!

Every bite is a melt-in-your-mouth mix of rich, nutty goodness with a lightly crisped crust and a soft, almost caramelized center. It’s the kind of treat you’ll bring to a gathering and leave with an empty plate. Whether you serve it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or sneak a piece with your morning coffee, it’s Southern comfort at its sweetest.


Why You’ll Love It

  • Super Easy to Make: Just mix, pour, and bake—no fuss, no fancy tools.
  • Old-Fashioned Flavor: It tastes like something grandma would bake, only easier.
  • Perfect for Any Occasion: Great for potlucks, holidays, cookouts, or anytime you want to impress with minimal effort.
  • Totally Addictive: Sweet, buttery, and filled with toasted pecans—you won’t stop at one slice!

Ingredients

  • 2 cups chopped pecans, toasted
  • 1 ½ cups self-rising flour
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 cup granulated white sugar
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, granulated sugar, oil, and eggs until smooth and glossy.
  3. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. Add the self-rising flour and salt, mixing until just combined.
  5. Fold in the toasted pecans by hand, making sure they’re evenly distributed.
  6. Pour the batter into your prepared pan and spread it into an even layer.
  7. Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  8. Let cool for about 10 minutes before slicing into squares.

Serving Suggestions

  • Dust with powdered sugar for a simple finish.
  • Top with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a decadent dessert.
  • Serve warm or at room temperature—either way, it’s delicious!

Storage

Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week. It also freezes beautifully—just wrap tightly and thaw before serving.


This Sweet Alabama Pecan Bread is one of those desserts that hits all the right notes—sweet, crunchy, buttery, and rich. One bite and you’ll understand why it’s a Southern favorite. Whether you’re baking for a crowd or treating yourself, this easy recipe is always a hit.
